Simms Patterson Square Condo – Living Level

The main living area of the condo is located on the second floor. This image is of the wine rack located at the top of the landing. Nest Designs took an old industrial piece and converted it to a wine rack. Tour posters were framed and hung together to create a graphic statement on the back wall.  Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.

The living level is part of an open floor plan that blends the living, eating and kitchen areas together. This image focuses on the living portion. Notice how the brick wall, the patterned area rug and the grey tones in the sofa and chair add color and texture to this space. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.

The dining area seats four comfortably. The brick wall in the background is the perfect compliment to the galvanized iron top on the kitchen table. The storage unit behind the table adds visual interest and storage at the same time. The metal stools spin to adjust the height. They are the perfect mixture of practical and functional seating with an urban feel. The kitchen area in the model already came with the gorgeous cabinetry. Nest Designs selected the finish color, the concrete counter-top, and the glass mosaic back-splash. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.

Prior to the renovation, there was a window in the wall where the stove is now placed. Removing that window allowed for a wall of cabinetry and a lot of added storage for the homeowners. The two contrasting quartz counter-tops and a fun glass mosaic back-splash gives those surfaces a punch of color and adds some visual interest along with some textural accents.

2011 DPVA Designer Show House

Nest Designs participated in the DPVA’s Designer Show House for the third consecutive year. At the end of the room selection process, I was fortunate to get the Master Bathroom. As you can see from the before image, the bathroom already had a nice layout. I decided to leave all the existing tile work, vanity, bathtub and flooring. I even kept the red walls but changed the shade of red to a more vibrant color for this space. As you can see from the images below a color change with some fun accent pieces can really transform a space.

Here is the after photo of the Master Bathroom. Nest Designs changed the wall color to Sherwin-Williams Cherry Tomato SW6864. I found the man and woman wall vases online and knew instantly that they were going to be the focal point of the bathroom. I decided to hang them en mass on the walls. To add a punch of color, I added lime green spider mums. Those selections resulted in a space that was vivid, fun and energetic. Photos by Bealer Photographic Arts.

Over the course several months Nest Designs LLC helped transform this space from an empty shell into this showpiece. From the original design concept to the finished space, this is definitely one of my favorite interior design projects to date. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.

It’s hard to believe looking at this image that this kitchen was in a house that had been totally gutted. No plumbing, no lights, no appliances, no cabinetry just the support beam across the middle of the ceiling. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.

New cherry doors replace the old maroon laminate lockers. The same wood was used to create the new vanity and trim in this space. New mirrors, shelving and a granite counter top all help to update this room. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.
